Comments on: Brick Lane Market 15 https://spitalfieldslife.com/2011/09/18/brick-lane-market-15/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Fri, 21 Oct 2011 07:08:23 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: BK https://spitalfieldslife.com/2011/09/18/brick-lane-market-15/#comment-28557 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 07:08:23 +0000 http://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=43970#comment-28557 This is one part of Bob’s story I knew nothing about although I have known Bob for many years. Not only does he know his customers but he is a wonderful caring man that me and my partner have had the pleasure of knowing throughout the time of visiting his stall. He is kind, selfless and very funny too. Thanks for sticking around Bob.

I shall brave the crowds at Stratford Station (Westfield opening has given those of us in Stratford a taste of our Olympic future!) and hotfoot it to Fournier Street in the next few days.

Best wishes,

Joan

Hurry along to The Town House 5 Fournier St where the Spitalfields Life maps are selling like hot cakes – I’ve just bought one and can assure you that Adam Dant and The Gentle Author have jointly come up with a real masterpiece of design and witty, informative prose. I look forward to ‘Spitalfields Life the board game’…..Meanwhile catch the exhibition of Adam Dant’s other maps of East London, on at that address till Oct 2nd. Don’t go on a Monday though – it’s closed.

Ros

Is it sold out already? I will have to look out for it again on my next trip there – it’s almost a holy place for my adolescent sons and their far from adolescent dad!

Best wishes,

Joan
